New Cable Park in Brandon/Tampa Area!!!!
Ok dont get mad I did a search and if this has been brought up before I am sorry.. I know I love going to the cable park and hated driving all the way down I4 to Orlando.. Well that has changed this year as there is a Brand new cable park at Mccormick's Ski School in seffner well pretty much right outside of Brandon.
2020 McCormick Lakes Way Seffner, FL 33584 here is their website http://www.skimccormick.com/cable.html prices are just about the Same as Orlando's cable park.. Again sorry if this has already posted somewhere as I have not been on this forum in a really long time and I did use the search feature and did not see anything under cable park or mccormick for this Hope this helps out the Tampa Riders, I Love watching the kiters on the water and wish I could get into the sport. I've been to the kitehouse to practice and I understand how you can't wait to get back on the water but just can not find the time with my two boys.. I have no affiliation with this ski school and to be honest I have only been there one time along time ago to watch a Wakeboard thing.. I just drove past this past weekend as I keep hearing they have a cable park and sure enough saw it with my own eyes from the car... |

i hit up the cable about twice a week, it's so legit. the people who run it are mad friendly as are the riders. it's smaller than orlando though with not as many jumps or rails, but the line is usually minimal to nonexistent if you go on the right days and it is a bit cheaper. great thing to do when there's no wind!
talz if you're looking to get into kiting in the future this is a great start. definitly will help with board riding abilities, all you need is a kite |

McCormicks is the bomb #1 cable in FL and deffinitly starting to get noticed by the big boys, sick park set up and real stoked on the local kite community somebody recently sabotaged the cable though and sent second tower into the lake, very expensive and dangerous act of vandalism they're offering two lifetime passes to whoever has info on the incident

I'm pissed about this, Right in my own backyard too. I just built a cable board and havn't been able to use it cuZ of this BS. I can't imageine why someone would do that, Unless its a competitor(won't mention names) that has seen a sharp decline in their busness since mccormicks opened.

So are you all using your kiteboards or wakeboards/wakeskates. I am looking to go up there in the next couple of weeks to practice board skills, but would like to use my kiteboard for familiarity. I wasn't sure if wake bindings were a requirement. It looks cool. I've never been, so I'm hoping I don't look like a total idiot. Oh wait doesn't matter, it'll be like my kiting
